The mother who shoved her baby into the arms of the fireman just before her car burst into flames.
The father who stepped into the way of the bus to push his son from it's path.
The unknown man that ran through the tenant halls, banging on doors, hollering "Fire. The front stairs are blocked. Use the back stairs." He was running towards the front, the last that anyone saw him.
The school teacher who dived into the storm drain and pulled a boy, a dog, and 4 puppies out, before he was swept away himself. He didn't make it.

Sacrifice is not just something that happens during war. It happens when the thought of a loss is so abhorrent, we become willing to give what we hold most dear, simply because we couldn't bear our life otherwise.
Pulling a string to set off a bomb strapped around yourself is not a sacrifice. It is cowardice taken to the extreme.

Elton John's song Sacrifice
And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts living
In two separate worlds
But it's no sacrifice
No sacrifice
It's no sacrifice at all
Mutual misunderstanding
After the fact
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act
We lose direction
No stone unturned
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns

A woman who becomes a sacrifice to the man she loves... ^_^
And a man that becomes the woman's fighter. I'm feeling romantic today.

Zeus. I tried giving Zeus a sacrifice so that it would rain to prove he exists. It didn't work...
